Paper Source Invitations Wording Help

Sometimes the most difficult part of creating an invitation or announcement is figuring out exactly what to say. Below you'll find samples for all occasions from birth announcements to bridal showers to wedding invitations.

A great way to enhance your invitation is through fonts-- see our Wording Help PDF for samples of various formatting and font styles. Play with the fonts available in your Word Processing program or search the web for font downloads.
